Lack of talent? I'll buy a year's worth of cultivation for one dollar!

"Take it and practice."

The tone was extremely casual.

It was as if what was given away was not a priceless Xuan-level cultivation technique, but a head of cabbage.

Su Yu looked at the "Rock-Shattering Palm" in his hand.

He didn't bring up what happened last night.

They did not inquire into the origin of this exercise manual.

Some things are better left unsaid; saying them out loud only makes you seem pretentious.

He carefully put the ancient book into his canvas bag.

Looking at Lin Xiaoxiao.

He said very seriously, "Thank you."

"cut."

Lin Xiaoxiao blushed slightly and waved her hand somewhat awkwardly.

"Why are you being so polite with me, sister!"

"From now on at school, you just need to listen to your sister!"

"Let's go! Off to Kyoto!"

……

The SUV drove smoothly on the streets of Jiangcheng.

The atmosphere inside the car gradually relaxed.

"Oh, right."

Lin Xiaoxiao turned her head and looked at Su Yu.

"When freshmen arrive at Kyoto University of Technology, the first thing they do is choose their department."

What major are you planning to study?

Su Yu was stunned for a moment.

"Departmental studies?"

"You don't know?" Lin Xiaoxiao looked at him as if he were an alien.

He then patted his forehead.

"That's right. You never even got close to martial arts before, so you probably never knew anything about these things."

Lin Xiaoxiao cleared her throat and began to explain the science.

"The path of martial arts is vast and boundless."

"Besides basic cultivation of qi and blood, there are many ways to fight."

"Kyoto University of Martial Arts is divided into several graduate schools."

"For example, the Weaponry Academy has departments for swords, sabers, and spears."

"The distance learning academy mainly focuses on archery and concealed weapon techniques."

"There are also auxiliary academies, such as the Formation Department, the Alchemy Department, and even the Mecha Manufacturing Department."

"Of course, there are also the purest combat academies, which focus on hand-to-hand combat."

Lin Xiaoxiao introduced them as if they were her own treasures.

"Each department has different resource allocations and advisors."

"With such strong qi and blood, you need to carefully choose a weapon or direction that suits you."

Su Yu leaned back in his seat.

His deep eyes flickered slightly.

Sword-type?

A high-grade alloy sword infused with meteorite iron can easily cost several million.

Furthermore, it also requires matching sword techniques and a scabbard.

Archery?

That's the ultimate money-burning machine!

Putting aside a specially made high-level war bow, just those special alloy arrows that can break through the defenses of alien beasts, firing one is equivalent to firing a sports car!

This isn't archery, it's throwing money around!

As for the formation system and the alchemy system...

Su Yu didn't even think about it.

Setting up an array requires extremely expensive spirit stones and materials, and alchemy is an even bigger pitfall. Buying medicinal herbs and alchemy furnaces can lead to financial ruin if the furnace explodes.

Su Yu silently calculated the 240,000 yuan in his card.

poor.

too poor.

Those fancy departments are simply beyond his current social class's reach.

Even if he has a system.

All the money must be used to exchange for cultivation points and to deduce cultivation techniques!

We absolutely cannot waste our time on those external things!

"Have you thought it through?" Lin Xiaoxiao asked curiously as she leaned closer.

"I've made up my mind."

Su Yu nodded.

"I practice boxing."

"Practice boxing?" Lin Xiaoxiao was taken aback.

Why?

"Because we're poor."

Su Yu answered very decisively, without any attempt to conceal anything.

"Bows and weapons are too expensive; I can't afford them."

"Only your fists are part of your own body."

"No need to spend money to buy it, and no need to maintain it."

"save trouble."

Most importantly, his system can deduce any martial art technique.

If you push your boxing technique to its limit, it's not impossible to shatter a star with a single punch.

Why waste money like that?

Upon hearing this reason...

Uncle Lin, who was driving, trembled slightly in his hands on the steering wheel.

This peerless genius who instantly killed Zhao Ze and whose health and mana exceeded 1,000.

The reason for choosing this major was... because I'm poor?!

Lin Xiaoxiao was also stunned.

She looked at Su Yu's extremely serious face.

I was originally going to advise him to choose a cooler sword-wielding class.

But the words were on the tip of her tongue.

Lin Xiaoxiao's eyes suddenly lit up.

A hint of cunning and a touch of flirtation flashed in his eyes.

"right!"

Lin Xiaoxiao slapped her thigh and loudly echoed.

"Practicing martial arts is good!"

"A real man's romance is when every punch lands on his skin!"

"What kind of skill is it to use those pieces of scrap metal!"

Lin Xiaoxiao straightened her chest and solemnly declared.

"I've made up my mind too!"

"I practice boxing too! We'll get the same instructor!"

Uncle Lin, who was driving in front, had a twitching mouth.

Young Miss!

I'm giving up the top-tier swordsmanship talent passed down through my family!

Why not go for the perfectly good sword class?

Why would I go and learn any kind of boxing from them?!

Can your delicate fists kill a monster or shatter a steel plate?!

But Uncle Lin dared not speak.

One can only sigh silently in one's heart, for daughters grow up and cannot be kept at home.

Su Yu turned his head.

Looking at Lin Xiaoxiao's forced agreement yet undisguised excitement.

He didn't expose it.

Just nodded.

"it is good."

……

The SUV drove onto the highway.

It's still some distance from Jiangcheng High-Speed ​​Railway Station.

The atmosphere inside the car became quiet.

Only the air conditioner made a slight whooshing sound.

Lin Xiaoxiao sat next to Su Yu.

Last night, in order to completely wipe out the Zhao family, she personally took charge and barely slept all night.

At this moment, drowsiness surged in like a tide.

Her head began to doze off little by little.

As the vehicle moved, his body "unintentionally" tilted towards Su Yu.

a little.

Tilt it a little more.

at last.

When the vehicle passes through an extremely gentle curve.

Lin Xiaoxiao tilted her head to the side.

She leaned directly on Su Yu's shoulder.

Su Yu's body stiffened slightly.

A pleasant, faint fragrance, reminiscent of a young girl's hair, instantly filled the air around my nose.

He turned his head slightly.

His gaze fell.

He looked at Lin Xiaoxiao leaning on his shoulder.

That pure and beautiful face was so close.

Breathing evenly.

but.

Su Yu's extremely keen martial arts senses clearly detected it.

Lin Xiaoxiao's long, fan-like eyelashes were trembling very slightly and uncontrollably.

Even her breathing rhythm was slightly faster than when she was truly asleep.

Pretending to be asleep.

A knowing glint flashed in Su Yu's deep eyes.

It's obvious at a glance.

How could a mid-level martial artist with a Qi and Blood level of 406 not even realize that he was leaning against someone?

This poor acting was full of flaws.

but.

Su Yu did not move.

They didn't say anything to expose it.

The blood-red news feeds he had seen that morning flashed through his mind again.

Overnight, a local tyrant family was wiped out.

Even if the family's top experts step in to carry it out.

But as the one who gave the orders and led all of this, Lin Xiaoxiao, an eighteen-year-old girl, must have been under tremendous pressure.

This pressure comes not only from killing.

It was also a family responsibility that she forcibly shouldered in order to protect him.

"I'm so tired."

Su Yu sighed silently.

Then, calmly, he lowered the shoulder that was being leaned on by half an inch.

This will allow Lin Xiaoxiao's head to rest more steadily and comfortably.

Lin Xiaoxiao was leaning on his shoulder.

He sensed Su Yu's subtle adjustment.

The roots of her ears, hidden beneath her hair, instantly turned bright red.

But the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly.

It drew a very sweet smile.
